Study Abroad

ORVIETO, ITALY

The School of Art offers an exceptional opportunity to study in Italy at the Orvieto International Institute of Classical Studies. The Institute is located in the central town square of Orvieto, one of the most beautiful and historic locations in Italy. Perched dramatically on a massive plateau, you will study in a city with picturesque views, stunning architecture, and unique cultural traditions. Archaeological sites such as Underground Orvieto, the Crocefisso del Tufo Etruscan cemetery and the Cannicella ruins of Etruscan, Roman, and Late Antique civilizations are nearby.

Courses are taught in the spring, summer, and fall. All courses are in English with professors alternating each semester. Past offerings have included:

  • Etruscan Art and Archaeology
  • Disegno: Drawing + Invention
  • Picture Book Art + Design
  • Libro Concetti: Visual Narratives
  • Art and the Classical Ideal
  • Watercolor

For more information on Art in Orvieto and how to apply, please click here. All art-related course offerings will be advertised through the listserv and flyers, with an informational meeting held each spring.

GRADUATE STUDIO ART EXCHANGE OPPORTUNITY

Academy of Fine Arts and Design in Bratislava, Slovakia

Each year, a School of Art patron underwrites partial expenses for a graduate student to participate in an exchange program with the Academy of Fine Art and Design in Bratislava. The Academy sends one student to UA in the fall, and the School of Art chooses one student to participate each spring.

OTHER STUDY ABROAD OPPORTUNITIES

Many other study abroad opportunities exist through the Office of International Affairs. In addition to operating its own programs, Study Abroad counsels students on study abroad programs run by other American universities, private companies, and foreign universities. It also offers an extensive library of literature and videotapes on specific programs.

Always check with your Academic Advisor to verify how units will apply to your degree program before you enroll.

Contact an academic advisor or set up an advising appointment to learn more.

“Inside, Outside” is an impressive series of collages by School of Art student, Breanna Romero.
.
Growing up I had a slight obsession with collecting Teen Vogue publications as well as anatomy textbooks. I was always drawn to the editorials within the magazines, but also the detailed and meticulous illustrations within the textbooks. This obsession would lead to myself finding beauty within the human body, its ability to contort and take numerous forms. Created through scans of my old magazines and textbooks, I wanted to combine the similarities I found into a photo spread of my own publication that meets in-between fashion magazine and informative medical textbook.

This gorgeous manipulated digital photograph is titled "Triangular Melons," and is by recent @uarizonaphoto MFA Alumna, Leah Netsky!
.
My work considers the growing interaction between animal and plant life, science and technology. I use physical and digital manipulation of subjects to explore the human drive to edit, define, and control the organic. I have recently been working on a series of "future fruit" which play on genetic modification in fruit production. This image imagines how melons might be designed in the future.

These beautiful photographs are from Tamrin Ingram who received her MFA from the Photography, Video and Imaging program here at the UArizona School of Art!
.
These two photographs contain the shadow of my granny.
In one she photographs her youngest daughter (my mother, now passed) on a swing set, and the shadow of mother and daughter is cast on the background. In another the same shadow of Granny is cast upon the freshly dug grave of her husband. I was struck by these self-shadow portraits of her, both photographs are quite plain yet both seem to whisper something about heartache, parenthood, and loss. In one, a wife documents the final resting place of newly dead husband, in another a mother documents her daughter just after the death of father and husband, and on the edge of it all is myself, daughter and granddaughter left with only shadows and dirt and two haunting photographs, seeing them at a time long before they ever saw me.

This fantastic illustrative piece is called SIMPLIFY by School of Art student, Caroline Berkey!
.
“I would hope my illustrations speak more for themselves than any written statement would. I also wouldn't want to discourage any viewer from applying a personal meaning to my work, especially since the nuance of visual narrative is so special. This piece means a lot to me. I made this piece while experiencing the worst artist block I've felt, to my memory. I made this piece when I didn't want to make anything at all. I made this piece at the beginning of a global pandemic, when all of my goals and plans were flipped upside down, and I ashamedly felt relieved. I made this piece because I think it's funny and honest. S I M P L I F Y.” @caro.carlitos
